At this point I am fairly confident that we can run a small Pacific campaign, but this will be dependent on bookings. The Air and Naval games may be run as evening games, however if we have the player capacity, we could run these during the day and have players in bespoke roles. These options are not on the booking list, but if you are interested (and I know a couple of names who probably will be!!), then let me know. There may also be the chance for players to move from one front to another, if guys are happy to swap around.

Welcome to the Megagame blog!

This blog will hopefully give you some flavour of the Wargames holidays that are run each January in Falmouth. There is also an egroup discussion page which you may wish to join. Just send a mail to domf2002@yahoo.com and I will send you an invite.

What does it cost and where are these held

The megagames holidays are week long events, the cost for 2014 will be £400.

The price of the holiday covers accommodation and meals from the Saturday to the following Saturday morning inclusive, meals being breakfast lunch, and a three course evening meal. If you wish to arrive a day earlier of stay an extra couple of days there is a daily surcharge which is currently £40.

The dates for the game are as follows

Arrive Saturday 19th Jan 2013

Play commences on Sunday 20th through to Friday 25th.

Depart hotel Saturday 26th Jan

On the wargames front figures, terrain dice and a copy of rules system are included in the price. All you have to bring is your beer money ;)

Combat Command Rules system

We use our own rules system which is D10 based. This evolved from the Spearhead system which we used for the first two games, but it soon became apparent that Spearhead worked well for up to a Division a side, but these games saw Corps and Army sized formations on one table (and in some games 12 tables were in play), so we begin to write a system that could cope with these numbers, allowed for some reconnaissance of the battle field and with the integration of higher level air and naval assets as scenario’s dictated. It’s not a finished product yet, but each year it has been rigorously tested. New ideas often arise out of each megagame, this year was no exception. The discussion for this is currently taking place on the domgaming site. To join that, email me at domf2002@yahoo.com
